A review by grapejuicejpg
Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas
4.0
there were definitely 5 star scenes in this book, i cried over some and giggled in others and overall really really loved it towards the end once all the action started!
but this also felt verrrrrry long. some scenes were drawn out and i found myself not wanting to pick up the book at points in the middle.
manon’s storyline was honestly my favorite out of the three. rowan felt like he came out of nowhere, especially after the love triangle in the last two books but i’m here for it and ship him with aelin. so excited to see where it will all lead!!!
i love reading series so much because of all the time you get to spend with characters and in a certain world, and this is the first one i’m reading in so long—i’m a happy camper!
“And when she awoke before dawn, warm and safe, and rested, Rowan was still holding her hand, clasped to his chest. Something molten rushed through her, pouring over every crack and fracture still left gaping and open. Not to hurt or mar, but to weld, to forge.”
“And, he had returned to Celaena with chocolates, since he claimed to be insulted that she considered his absence a proper birthday present. She tried to embrace him but he would have none of that, and told her as much. Still, the next time she used the bathing room she’d snuck behind his chair at the work table and planted a great smacking kiss on his cheek. He waved her off and wiped his face with a snarl, but she had the suspicion that he let her get past his defenses.”
“You are trusted and respected. So I am staying. Because you are needed and because I will follow you to whatever end.”
“Some things are worth the risk.”
“It would not take a monster to destroy a monster, but light. Light to drive out darkness. She was not afraid. She would remake the world. Remake it for them, those she had loved with this glorious burning heart.”
“Fireheart.”
